The partial pressure of co2 gas above the liquid in a carbonated drink is 0.51 atm. assuming that the henry's law constant for co2 in the drink is that same as that in water, 3.7 x 10-2 mol/l atm, calculate the solubility of carbon dioxide in this drink. give your answer to 3 decimal places.

0.019 mol/L

Explanation:

Given data

Partial pressure of CO₂ above the liquid in a carbonated drink (P): 0.51 atmHenry's law constant for CO₂ (k): 3.7 × 10⁻² mol/L . atmSolubility of carbon dioxide in the drink (C): ?

According to Henry's law, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is proportional to its partial pressure.

C = k × P

C = (3.7 × 10⁻² mol/L . atm) × 0.51 atm

C = 0.019 mol/L

It is a mixture. simply put, a compound must be pure, that is, of only one chemical structure and composition. a mixture is made of different chemical substances (i.e. elements, molecules, compounds) that are not chemically bonded to each other, but instead physically grouped together, as in the case of gasoline (a homogeneous solution).
